Study Day

 

Introducing 

The Gospel of St Matthew

 

Saturday 25th April 2026

10am – 3pm

 

at

St Mary’s Church,

West Chiltington, 

RH20 2JW

         (Carpark bottom of Church Street)

Saturday 25 April 2026

10am – 3pm

led by Canon Dr Peter Sills

The Gospel of Matthew has a distinctive style and an orderly layout.

It was written around AD70 for a Jewish Christian community, possibly in Antioch in ancient Syria, and although placed first in the New Testament,

it was actually the second Gospel to be written.

 

In this study day we will get to know Matthew and his Gospel.

We will explore

– Who Matthew was and why he wrote his Gospel

– The sources which he used

– What marks his Gospel out and its major themes

– Matthew’s picture of Jesus

 

Please bring a packed lunch.

Tea, Coffee and cold drinks provided.

 

Canon Peter Sills, formerly Vice-Dean of Ely, lives in Hassocks. He is the author of several books, including Six Steps Into The Bible, written for those who want to get under the skin of the Bible and deepen their understanding of the scriptures.
